Its more a case of the hotel NOT having a secure booking facility for your ccard number....You should also not be surprised if sometimes they mess up your booking..
Cant agree with the idea of hiring a tuk tuk for the day. You are better to ask around with the drivers in private a/c cars on the main roads for a deal OR I can highly recommend Mr Ping Pong ( Yes its his name!) thru The Yorkshire Inn on Soi San Sabai as an honest driver.
